During the last few days I noticed a few people demanding that every Ukrainian refugee in Germany who is of able bodied age should be forced back to Ukraine to either fight on the front or work in ammunition factories or hospitals. As far as I can tell no major publication or politician has echoed this sentiment yet. I hope that will stay this way. But the sheer audacity with which these people demanded strangers to be sent to their death is astounding. “Fighting to the last Ukrainian” really is something they want and it sickens me.
Stay as safe as you can, is there any possibility you could get out? For the obviously material safety reasons, but also some of the stories about how the post-war economy is likely to go is extremely concerning.
I realise not everybody can just drop what they are doing and gtfo, so I hope you stay as safe as possible regardless.
I’ll be getting out of this hellhole as soon as the borders are open. As much as it saddens me to see my country reduced to this, I’m not going to stick around and try fixing it. I’ve come to hate this place with a burning passion.
